In order to facilitate understanding of the embodiments provided herein, the following description of the related art in the embodiments of the present application is first made:
optionally, the embodiment of the present application is applied to a display device using ATSC3.0 (Advanced Television Systems Committee 3.0, version 3.0 of national digital Television standard in the united states) protocol. In the service defined by the ATSC3.0 protocol, a time slice diagram of channel broadcast at the same frequency point is shown in fig. 2. In fig. 2, when the display device is initialized, that is, when the display device plays an audio/video picture through a channel (a first channel marked as a designated frequency point) in a certain frequency point, the SLT is collected, an IP address and a port number of the first channel are obtained by analyzing the SLT, signaling data (marked as first signaling data) corresponding to the first channel is collected and obtained according to the IP address and the port number of the first channel, and an audio/video segment to be played through the first channel is filtered from description information of the first signaling data. However, when a video picture is played through a first channel of an assigned frequency point, the collected signaling data is not cached, so when the first channel needs to be switched to another channel of the assigned frequency point (marked as a second channel), the signaling data needs to be collected again, the signaling data corresponding to the second channel (marked as the second signaling data) is obtained according to the IP address and the port number corresponding to the second channel, and then an audio/video segment to be played through the second channel is filtered from the second signaling data.
In the above channel switching process, collecting signaling data is a time-consuming process, for example, it takes 500ms to collect signaling data, which is too long, and thus the channel switching efficiency is not high.
In the above description, how the display device implements the same-frequency channel switching in the service specified in the ATSC3.0 protocol in the background art is described in an embodiment, the method provided in this embodiment of the present application will be described below.
Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a flow chart of a method provided by the present application. As an embodiment, the flow shown in fig. 3 is applied to a display device. The display device is the display device described above with reference to fig. 1A to 1D. The process may include the steps of:
step 301: when a picture is played through a first channel of a designated frequency point, acquiring and caching channel identifiers of all channels on the designated frequency point and corresponding signaling data; and filtering a first audio and video clip played through the first channel according to first signaling data corresponding to the first channel.
As an example, the first channel in step 301 may be a channel in which a first picture is played in the display device among the designated frequency points.
As another embodiment, the first channel in step 301 may also be a channel that plays a picture in the display device when the display device receives a message that the channel identification information of the channel on the designated frequency point changes. Because the channel identification information of the channel on the designated frequency point changes, the channel identifications of all the channels on the designated frequency point and the corresponding signaling data are obtained and cached again when the current channel plays a picture.
In the specific implementation, the channel identifiers of all channels on the designated frequency point and the corresponding signaling data are obtained and cached in step 301. The channel identification at least comprises an IP address and a port number corresponding to the channel, the specifically acquired channel identification is obtained by analyzing the collected SLT, so as to obtain the channel identification corresponding to each channel on the appointed frequency point, the SLT is issued by an operator, and when a picture is played through the channel on the appointed frequency point, the display equipment can receive the SLT of the appointed frequency point issued by the operator.
In this embodiment, the SLT of the designated frequency point is generated based on the ATSC3.0 protocol, and includes a channel number, and an IP address and a port number corresponding to each channel on the designated frequency point. The SLT is used for indicating that all channels in the SLT are on a designated frequency point; the number of the secondary channel of each channel of the designated frequency point is different, so as to identify each channel and the corresponding IP address and port number of each channel. In a specific implementation, the positions of all channels on the designated frequency point in the SLT may be arranged in series according to the number of the secondary channel.
Correspondingly, the signaling data at least comprises channel identifiers, namely IP addresses and port numbers corresponding to the channels, and playing channels of audio and video clips played through the corresponding channels. The signaling data is also sent by the operator, and is sent together with the SLT of the previous designated frequency point.
Further, the SLT and the signaling data are in different data packets, the SLT being transmitted via a separate data packet, and the signaling data being transmitted via another data packet. One frequency point has only one SLT data packet, but has a plurality of signaling data packets. One of the channels also corresponds to a plurality of data packets of the signaling data, and the audio/video segments indicated by the signaling data in the data packets are different.
In this embodiment, the specific implementation manner of filtering the first audio/video segment played through the first channel according to the first signaling data corresponding to the first channel in step 301 is as follows: firstly, acquiring first signaling data by judging whether an IP address and a port number in the collected signaling data are consistent with an IP address and a port number corresponding to a first channel, and if so, determining the signaling data to be the first signaling data corresponding to the first channel; and then filtering out a first audio and video clip played through a first channel according to a channel for playing the audio and video clip described in the first signaling data.
Step 302: when the first channel needs to be switched to the second channel of the appointed frequency point, second signaling data corresponding to the second channel is obtained from the cached signaling data, and a second audio and video clip played through the second channel is filtered according to the second signaling data.
As an embodiment, after obtaining the signaling data of each channel of the designated frequency point, the signaling data may be classified and cached according to the channel, or may be directly cached. Thus, there are various ways to obtain the second signaling data corresponding to the second frequency channel from the buffered signaling data: when the signaling data is cached in a classified manner, the second signaling data corresponding to the second channel may be obtained according to the set classification identifier of the second signaling data (for example, an IP address and a port number corresponding to the second channel, or a secondary channel number of the channel); when the signaling data is directly cached, the corresponding second signaling data can be directly found according to the corresponding IP address and port number of the second channel. The above embodiment of acquiring the second signaling data is only for ease of understanding and is not particularly limited.
The flow shown in fig. 3 is completed.
Further, in the embodiment of the present application, a time slice diagram of channel playing of the same frequency point is shown in fig. 4. In fig. 4, when the display device is initialized, that is, when the display device plays an audio/video screen through the first channel of the designated frequency point, the SLT corresponding to the frequency point is collected and analyzed, and then signaling data of all channels for the designated frequency point pair is collected and cached. When the first channel is required to be switched to the second channel of the designated frequency point, because the signaling data of all the channels are cached, the second signaling data corresponding to the second channel can be directly obtained from the cached signaling data, and then the audio and video clips to be played through the second channel are filtered from the second signaling data. In this embodiment, when the channel switching at the same frequency point is performed, the time required for acquiring the signaling data from the buffer is short, for example, 0.1ms, which greatly improves the efficiency of channel switching compared with the time consumed for collecting the signaling data during channel switching in the background art.
As can be seen from the process shown in fig. 3, in the embodiment of the present application, when one channel of a certain frequency point (designated frequency point) is played, signaling data of all channels on the frequency point can be obtained and cached, so that when a currently played channel needs to be switched to another channel on the frequency point, signaling data corresponding to another channel can be directly found from the cached signaling data, time consumed by channel switching is reduced, and efficiency of channel switching is improved.
The above description is only exemplary of the present application and should not be taken as limiting the present application, as any modification, equivalent replacement, or improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
